Remarks

A dimension only can be labeled to a family parameter in a family document. When the dimension is labeled by a reporting parameter, the dimension value drives the parameter value. When the parameter is labeled by a non-reporting, the value of the parameter drives the dimension. If the dimension is multi-segmented, each segment of the dimension is driven by the same parameter value. Multi-segmented dimensions cannot be labeled by reporting parameters. To unbind the family parameter, set this property to a null reference ( Nothing in Visual Basic) .

Exceptions
